Notes on Martin Kleppmann's excellent Designing Data-Intensive Applications.

Chapter 1: Reliable, Scalable, and Maintainable Applications

• Data Systems
  • Dimensions to consider when thinking about data systems: access patterns, performance characteristics, implementations.
  • Modern data systems often blur the lines between databases, caches, streams, etc.
• Reliability
  • Systems should perform the expected function at a given level of performance, and be tolerant to faults and user mistakes
• Fault: One component of a system deviating from its spec. Prefer tolerating faults over preventing them (except for things like security issues). Faults stem from hardware failures, software failures, and human error (in a study, config errors caused most outages).

Stevey's Google Platforms Rant

I was at Amazon for about six and a half years, and now I've been at Google for that long. One thing that struck me immediately about the two companies -- an impression that has been reinforced almost daily -- is that Amazon does everything wrong, and Google does everything right. Sure, it's a sweeping generalization, but a surprisingly accurate one. It's pretty crazy. There are probably a hundred or even two hundred different ways you can compare the two companies, and Google is superior in all but three of them, if I recall correctly. I actually did a spreadsheet at one point but Legal wouldn't let me show it to anyone, even though recruiting loved it.

I mean, just to give you a very brief taste: Amazon's recruiting process is fundamentally flawed by having teams hire for themselves, so their hiring bar is incredibly inconsistent across teams, despite various efforts they've made to level it out. And their operations are a mess; they don't real
